Hi, I wanna know how to "skin" a program (in masm32...) like WinAMP.
I have seen code, but I wanna a tutorial...
So you have one, or know where I can get one, please relpy!
Best Regards

I know of no tutorial. But i have many sources that might help.
Basically you have to take care of WM_PAINT and WM_NCPAINT messages.
It can get a little bit more complicated if apart from doing that, you have to code mouse logic. Which (afaik) is the case of winamp's and many others as well.

I had this source sitting around and it makes a nice base to learn from when you want to deal skinned windows.
As for mouse logic, here again is some old (very old) code I had which you may want to study and adapt to your own program, it should work as is inside a message loop.
Which sadly means it won't work first time in the attached source as it uses a msg loop based on optimisations suggested by The Svin.

.EndIfIf I got your program right, E?in, the BMP is in the EXE... Or?
I wanna make a program that loades a external BMP.

Is't just to change the LoadBitmap API to the LoadImage API?
Will the "redraw" code work then?

you can check my website (http://www.effervescence.com), there' s an example of a skinned window (keygen template =))

Also Test Department has got some good examples on his web site (http://www.crahkob.com/td/). Give them a look.
Roy,
I check out your skinned window example a while ago... i liked the coding structure alot. And i think its an exellent example to "break away" from the beginner coding model that Hutch and Iczelion offers (Ewayne has some neat tricks to be learned from as well). I dont know if your example is the best source for skinned windows but i do think its a go00ooood source to be studied in general.
Just thought i would give your work some backing :)
Nice work..
:alright:

hey ! thanks *alot* nan ! =)
i must say, i also respect your work,
i liked that object oriented project you' ve done, that' s also a really interesting way to program that *totally* breaks from the good old beginner way of coding =)

Thanx :)
Im glad you like our OOP model.. your right tho, it is a bit of a twist. Heh, its what kept it fun to work on :)
While its about 98% finished in design, there is still more to come as soon as Thomas and myself are outa school long enough to collaborate some more on it.. but in the mean time, im just trying to meat Hutch's deadline to get it out in the next Masm package.
Thanx again!
